The Weeknd’s Thriller Movie: Jenna Ortega, Barry Keoghan, and a Whole Lot of Suspense Get a Release Date!

Buy Me A Coffee

The Weeknd, aka Abel Tesfaye, aka “your favorite moody crooner,” is making a cinematic splash in his very first thriller film. And no, this isn’t some Netflix docuseries about heartbreak—it’s the real deal.

The film, titled Hurry Up Tomorrow, is hitting theaters on May 16, 2025. That’s right, mark your calendars, set reminders, and prepare your snacks because Lionsgate is ready to serve us a buffet of suspense, starring The Weeknd, Wednesday sensation Jenna Ortega, and Oscar-nominated “Irish wildcard” Barry Keoghan.

But wait, there’s more!
If the title Hurry Up Tomorrow sounds oddly familiar, it’s because it’s also the name of The Weeknd’s upcoming album and his next tour. Talk about multi-tasking! This album wraps up his trilogy saga that began with After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022). Think of it as the final puzzle piece in the “cry-dancing in your living room” trilogy.

What’s the plot?
Well, it’s a suspense thriller, so expect heart-pounding moments, eerie silence, and probably a lot of people whispering ominously. The cherry on top? It’ll feature brand-new music from The Weeknd himself. So, even if the storyline doesn’t glue you to your seat, those sweet, sultry tunes definitely will.

Who’s running the show?
Trey Edward Shults is both writing and directing this rollercoaster of emotions. If you’re wondering, “Who’s Trey Edward Shults?” he’s the genius behind films like Waves and It Comes at Night, so yeah, he knows his way around tension. But it’s not just his baby. The Weeknd and Jenna Ortega are stepping in as producers, which means this movie is practically dripping with star power and creativity.

Bonus treat: An album release party?
The Hurry Up Tomorrow album drops January 24, 2025, and as if that wasn’t enough, The Weeknd is throwing a “one night only” concert at the Rose Bowl the very next day. A new album, a massive concert, and a thriller movie? Clearly, The Weeknd doesn’t believe in doing things halfway.

So, grab your popcorn, your tissues, and maybe even your running shoes—this thriller is shaping up to be an emotional and suspense-filled ride. May 2025 can’t come soon enough!
